Did you know cortisol is a potent anti-inflammatory hormone?
It is produced by the adrenal glands (which sit atop the kidneys) to play a vital role in how our bodies handle stress. In short lived amounts cortisol balances blood sugar, manages blood pressure and acts to counter inflammation in the body. Once the stressor ceases, production decreases.
More and more people are living in a constant state of prolonged stress. Stress with work, school, families, whatever it may be. These stressors are stored in the body and manifest by increased production of cortisol. The longer our bodies stay in these states of “fight or flight” the more cortisol is produced. This is when we start to see repercussions of elevated cortisol such as weight gain (cortisol causes your body to hang on to glucose and produce fat as a means to be able to fight or flee the stressor), pain, disrupted sleep, elevated blood pressure and so much more.
Chiropractic care and acupuncture help your body get out of fight or flight, improve sleep and thrive instead of just survive.
Dr Erica will be out of the office and out and about town at the Park Ridge Health fair/ celebrating her brother's wedding. There is still time to get your adjustment in before then. :)
Mothers day can be gut wrenching for some. Remember you are not alone. We celebrate mothers in all forms today. We see you, we love you ♡

Anyone who has been on the journey of trying to conceive will tell you that it is SUPER stressful. It is so hard and nearly soul crushing for some to hear "just relax and it will happen". Sometimes, we just cant relax and the more people say it the less we can.
Chiropractic care reduces both physical and mental stress. This is hugely important for anyone trying to conceive, because stress can affect your hormones and limit the functioning of your reproductive system. Your body tends to focus on the functions that are vital to keeping you alive first when you are stressed, which means all other systems including your reproductive system are paying the price.
Chiropractic treatment helps your muscles to relax, your mind relax, takes you out of fight or flight mode and helps aid in digestion.
So future mommas, consider adding chiropractic care to your ttc journey, your body will thank you for it.

Probiotics, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids play crucial roles in supporting kids' immune systems. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that aid digestion and help maintain a balanced gut microbiome, which is linked to immune function. Zinc is a mineral essential for immune cell development and function. It supports wound healing and helps fight infections. Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to reducing inflammation and promoting immune response. Including these nutrients in a child's diet can enhance their immune system, promoting overall health and resilience to illnesses.
🍎🍎 Have you ever thought about taking your kiddo to a chiropractor?
Chiropractic care can improve spinal alignment, enhance nervous system function, and may even help with common childhood issues like colic or ear infections. Our focus is on promoting the body's natural ability to heal, helping children develop proper posture and musculoskeletal health from a young age. By addressing imbalances, chiropractic adjustments may contribute to overall wellness, potentially leading to better sleep, digestion, and immune function. Give your kiddos a head start this school year!
This hit me at my core today. As a physician, I want my patients to feel heard and to feel that they can lay their problems down. It is truly a pleasure to serve and heal through Chiropractic Care and Functional Medicine. ♡ Have an amazing weekend all!
Did you know that not only is it Dr. Erica's birthday but it is National Ice Cream day?! What a way to spend a Sunday:) Hope you all are having an amazing weekend
Acai berries, native to the Amazon rainforest, are hailed as a superfood for their remarkable health benefits. Packed with antioxidants, acai berries help combat free radicals, reducing the risk of chronic diseases like cancer and heart disease. Their high fiber content aids digestion and promotes a healthy gut. Acai berries are rich in essential fatty acids like omega-3, which support brain health and reduce inflammation. Additionally, they are a fantastic source of vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals, bolstering the immune system and boosting overall vitality. Adding toppings like banana, strawberry and goji add even more health benefits and are a tasty addition.
Just a reminder, I will be out of the office June 27 and will return July 10.
I still have some last minute appointments available and extended hours 7am to 7pm for Monday June 26th for anyone in need of an adjustment before I leave ☀️ you can schedule by calling my office at 847-692-2688 and asking for Dr. Erica or calling/texting my cell 224-587-0129. Have an amazing weekend!
